"The main key for me is to always……" — David Morrissey
"The main key for me is to always find the truth of the character, and to find where that is and stay with that. Choosing good scripts is handy. Also, just having a commitment to your work which is total in trying to find the truth of the character you are playing, and that will come through. I think the worst thing, actually, would be to start to see yourself as a personality, rather than an actor. Just stay true to yourself as an actor and choose characters that you want to explore."
